100 Geocachers

Well done to patdhill as by my reckoning on the 15th September 2012 you became the 100th geocacher to visit one of the WSI series caches!

I'm afraid there is no prize for this but it does go to show how popular the series has been during its 16 months of existence.

One or two of the cahes are suffering the work of the elements and will need attention soon but don't give up visiting them as they are all still there.

... and in third place is...

mallykay became the 'third' successful completers of the WSI series today and it sounds like they had a good time...

"Found Curves, John Greenwood & Park Rash -  all co-ords spot on and caches in good condition. Another super day out & thankfully the snow flurries came to nothing!"

"Day 3 and we parked at Halton Gill, we are really enjoying basing our days out around this smashing series. We walked on the Yockenthwaite path to Horse Head Moor, along the ridge and returned via Cosh. New territory for us and our favourite day so far."

"What a thoroughly enjoyable series this has been, thank you so much and we look forward to receiving our copy of the book."


Thank you both for taking part and congratulations once again!

Unsteady Trickle

Well, spring is making an appearance (in the South and Midlands at least!) and hopefully this will encourage a few more geocachers out to Upper Wharfedale to enjoy the delights the area has to offer.

Over the winter there has been a small trickle of geocachers visiting the WSI caches (mainly the ones down in the dale). I hope that the increasing daylight and temperatures will see footfall increase.

To date 62 individual cachers have visited at least one of the series with around 250 visits to series caches in total. I'm pleased that so many people are enjoying the series and hope that the visits continue. Do continue to send in any photos that you have taken during your rounds.
